Finding multiple IDs returns out-of-order results

[mshick]

eg

db.rel.find('foo', [ 3, 2, 1 ]);
--> [ { id: 1 }, { id: 2 }, { id: 3 } ]

Ideally, with an array provided, the results would be returned in the same order as they are specified.

That's reasonable, but I'd have to double-check what the Ember adapters do. I think they might return them in alphabetical order.

Ostensibly relational-pouch is Ember-independent, but in practice I'm trying to model it pretty closely after Ember Data :P .

• this popular local storage adapter uses input order
• FixtureAdapter doesn't use input order
• RestAdapter is agnostic

So I would say that the current functionality is fine. Since the user can't be sure of what the underlying Ember Data adapter will return the order in, I'm not going to advocate for one order or another in my own adapter.

Also I tend to like it better the current way. :P

Cool, I understand. Maybe a note in the docs?

I've been accomplishing ordering in a then() operation; works well enough.

Thanks!

Open a pull req on the README either here or in ember-pouch, and I would love to include it. :)

Revised the PR. I looked through the code, but wasn't grokking the ordering. Thanks for explaining.
